~Favorite GUN Song~








Lloy Price - Stagger Lee
The night was clear and the moon was yellow
And the leaves came tumbling down

I was standing on the corner when I heard my bulldog bark

He was barkin' at the two men who were gamblin' in the dark
It was Stagger Lee and Billy, two men who gambled late
Stagger Lee threw seven, Billy swore that he threw eight

Stagger Lee told Billy, "I can't let you go with that"
"You have won all my money and my brand new stetson hat"
Stagger Lee started off goin' down that railroad track
He said "I can't get you Billy but don't be here when I come back"

Stagger Lee went home and he got his forty-four

Said "I'm goin' to the barroom just to pay that debt I owe"
Stagger Lee went to the barroom and he stood across the barroom door
He said "Nobody move" and he pulled his forty-four

Stagger Lee shot Billy, oh he shot that poor boy so bad
Till the bullet came through Billy and it broke the bartender's glass

Writer : H. LOGAN, L. PRICE

Gene Pitney - (The Man Who Shot) Liiberty Valance >

When Liberty Valance rode to town the womenfolk would hide, they'd hide
When Liberty Valance walked around the men would step aside
'cause the point of a gun was the only law that Liberty understood
When it came to shootin' straight and fast---he was mighty good.

>From out of the East a stranger came, a law book in his hand, a man
The kind of a man the West would need to tame a troubled land
'cause the point of a gun was the only law that Liberty understood
When it came to shootin' straight and fast---he was mighty good.

Many a man would face his gun and many a man would fall
The man who shot Liberty Valance, he shot Liberty Valance
He was the bravest of them all.

The love of a girl can make a man stay on when he should go, stay on
Just tryin' to build a peaceful life where love is free to grow
But the point of a gun was the only law that Liberty understood
When the final showdown came at last, a law book was no good.

Alone and afraid she prayed that he'd return that fateful night, aww that night
When nothin' she said could keep her man from goin' out to fight
>From the moment a girl gets to be full-grown the very first thing she learns
When two men go out to face each other only one retur-r-r-ns

Everyone heard two shots ring out, a shot made Liberty fall
The man who shot Liberty Valance, he shot Liberty Valance
He was the bravest of them all.

The man who shot Liberty Valance, he shot Liberty Valance
He was the bravest of them all.

High Noon,


Lyrics to High Noon :
Do not forsake me, oh my darling
On this our wedding day
Do not forsake me, oh my darling
Wait, wait along
I do not know what fate awaits me
I only know I must be brave

For I must face a man who hates me
Or die a coward, a craven coward
Or die a coward in my grave

Oh, to be torn twixt love and duty
Supposin' I love my fair haired beauty
Look at that big hand movin' round
Nearin' high noon
He made a vow while in state prison

Said it would be my life or hisn'
I'm not afraid to die but oh
What will I do if you leave me?

Do not forsake me, oh my darling
You make that promise as a bride
Do not forsake me, oh my darling
Although you're grievin', don't think of leavin'
Not while I need you by my side


Wait along, wait along
Wait along, wait along

The Lyrics
ONE MORE SECOND
by Gurf Morlix
(Crankbait music/SESAC/Administered by BUG Music)

It was all too perfect, like it was meant to be
the cosmic joke, wasn’t lost on me
my mind was carryin’, a heavy load
I bought the gun, out on Nolensville Road

Courage was buildin’, as the drinks were poured
a chance like this, couldn’t be ignored
didn’t take no thinkin’, I just know
I was gonna do, what I had to do

ONE MORE SECOND, WAS ALL IT WOULDA TOOK
ANOTHER THOUGHT, A CLOSER LOOK
BUT THUNDER CRACKED, AND BLOOD RAN COLD
ONE MORE SECOND, MIGHTA SAVED MY SOUL

In my pocket, it weighed a thousand pounds
I could hardly move, yeah it was weighin’ me down
but when I finally saw you, sittin’ across the hall
in less than a heartbeat, it weighed nothin’ at all

holdin’ cold steel, I measured my pain
my mind was spinnin’, like a hurricane
was I losin’ my nerve, was I startin’ to freeze
somehow I found the trigger, and I gave it a squeeze

ONE MORE SECOND, WAS ALL IT WOULDA TOOK
ANOTHER THOUGHT, A CLOSER LOOK
BUT THUNDER CRACKED, AND BLOOD RAN COLD
ONE MORE SECOND, MIGHTA SAVED MY SOUL

I watched the bullet, leave the gun
carve its trail, what have I done
I saw it spinnin’, windin’ its way
saw myself headed, for reckoning day

I fell to me knees, I screamed your name
I begged forgiveness, but I begged in vain
in half a moment, everything had gone black
the edge of that instant, I want it back

ONE MORE SECOND, WAS ALL IT WOULDA TOOK
ANOTHER THOUGHT, A CLOSER LOOK
BUT THUNDER CRACKED, AND BLOOD RAN COLD
ONE MORE SECOND, MIGHTA SAVED MY SOUL
ONE MORE SECOND, MIGHTA SAVED MY SOUL
